Fly in Your Face

Senator Joe Biden was quoted as saying that Bush is brain dead. He is referring to the commutation of neo conservative, Project for a New American Century fraternizer and protagonist Scooter Libby's 30 month jail sentence for aiding in the act of committing treason.

Biden goes on to call this commutation something that flies in the face of the American people.

Perhaps the Libby case has somehow gained more notoriety with the American public because in reality practically every act by this so called President has flown in the face of the American people.

The only difference is that the propaganda used to do things like invade Iraq and subject millions of people to either death, injury, exile, torture, or some other hideous loss, was significantly better.

Bush has long lost the propaganda war from the point of view of the majority of Americans. This is a significant and amazing loss because Americans are about as politically informed as a corn dog.

The point I want to make is that if all Americans were pointedly informed about this so called President's activities, his popularity not withstanding his crackpot radio thug chicken hawk cheerleaders, would be around zero. Bush is falling into the territory where he is as popular as he would be if he didn't even exist.
